Another day… another random song lyric stuck, on repeat, in my head…
This week’s selection is from Drake’s Headlines…
one sentence… and one sentence only
over and over and over
Want to guess?
Whoa…. look up there…. my words form an arrow!
Sweet…that wasn’t even planned.
So, the sentence of the week is…
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I’m just mobbin’ like that
It’s like a skipping record.
The only thing different about this occurrence, is that I’m constantly changing the words…
Kind of like Weird Al… except that I can’t do it for the whole song… and if Weird Al was only able to change-up one sentence at a time, he probably would have never became famous…. I mean, seriously, would you have purchased his cassette tape if the only thing he sang was “I’m Fat”
over and over and over
and I guess if Weird Al had never become famous, I’d have no one to refer to right now
and he’d just be some random weird guy named Al… who lives in someone’s hometown
singing karaoke… and changing up the words…
So back to my one liner…
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I’m just mobbin’ like that
It started simple…
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I’m just messy like that…
that one actually stuck for a while… I briefly considered getting it tattooed onto my ribcage but then I realized that I was suffering from exhaustion and checked myself into rehab
…because I was tired…
and because I refer to my bed as rehab
Wanna hear some of the other variations?
of course you do…
and I swear to everything Holy, Weird Al… if you use one of my ideas, I’m gonna be pissed
Super pissed.
Try me!
Herrrrre we go…
Place my waffle on my head, cause I’m just senile like that
Sell your dumb cats on Ebay, cause I’m just sneaky like that
Flush the toilet while you shower, cause I’m an asshole like that
Hide out and eat your cookies, cause I’m just hungry like that
Burn his dinner on the stove, cause I’m just modern like that
Coughing up a chunk of lung, cause I’m just plaguing like that
Check the dead bolt once again, cause I’m obsessive like that
Lick the frosting off my toe, cause no one’s looking at that
Launch a sandwich in the air, cause I’m a cracker like that
….
trust me, I could keep going
and I think I might have just given Weird Al his next hit single….
I’m watching you, Al… stay the hell away!!!!!
you sneaky bastard!









I wish someone had told me years ago that tucking a napkin into my shirt was all it would take to qualify as ‘mobbin’ like that.’
Smoking jacket trumps the napkin in the shirt… you win.
Later in life, I found out Weird Al is awesome! I think he lives in Orange County (where we are) and he wrote a funny kids book. We purchased it at the last school book fair. What I want to be when I grow up or when I grow up…
One summer, he had an exhibit at the Orange County Fair. Weird Al’s Brain. And we got to go “inside” his brain to watch a 3d science show about the brain (it was cool) and outside the building was a huge piece of artwork that was his brain. Awesome!
He’s a funny guy.
